About the Author
Scott Ramsay is a photographer and writer who has spent the past twenty years exploring Africa's wilderness areas, both independently and on commission for safari companies and influential conservation NGOs such as African Parks. For him, a personal connection to African wilderness is the antidote to the anxiety and strains brought upon us by the crushing pressures of uber-technological societies. With training in accounting, finance and journalism, Scott laboured in office jobs all over the world before hearing the call of African wilderness. This is his second book.
